Nordwheeler™ NW1213 NW Rapid™

NW1213™ Rapid portable HSI crusher is a high-performance wheel-mounted crusher suitable for primary crushing stations or as a standalone crusher. It is easy to relocate on site, also known as pit portable, as well as transport by road between production sites. It can also be shipped overseas or transported by train in a container before assembly.

High performance

The crusher has an electric-drive Nordberg® NP horizontal shaft impact (HSI) crushing unit with 250 kW (350 hp) crushing power.  

The material is fed onto the feeder by an excavator, wheel loader or dump truck.

NW1213™ can also be equipped with hydraulic support legs and hopper walls, which enable yet quicker and easier set-up when the crushing plant is transported to another location.

Quick to set up with pre-designed crushing stations

NW Rapid solutions include ready-made plant layouts, flow sheets and pre-designed crushing stations for the entire crushing and screening plant. Primary, secondary and tertiary crushing stations include not only a portable crusher or screen, but also the needed feeders, surge bins and conveyors to connect all the equipment as an entire crushing and screening plant. 

Crusher process control

Metso IC™ crusher process control is a standard feature for portable crushers. It automates, monitors, controls and optimizes the crushing process.

NW1213™ also has a Remote User Interface (RUI), which ensures more efficient and safer use of the plant. The system can be centrally controlled from a distance, leading to safer and easier operation of the machine.

The remote system also allows for adjusting the process without stopping it, further improving productivity and reducing downtime through preventive maintenance. The end product quality will also be more consistent due to an automatically controlled process.

IC process control and RUI are included with NW Rapid plants with no extra license costs.

Sustainable crushing with electric operations 

NW Rapid machines are all electric. This makes the operation more sustainable, especially when using renewable energy source. Electrically operated units are easy to maintain, and their operational costs are significantly lower than diesel-driven machines. In addition, when grid is not available, servicing a single large diesel generator on the site is less demanding than service multiple diesel engines in each unit.

Safe and easy to operate and maintain

This HSI crusher is safe and easy to operate and maintain. Features such as spacious and accessible platforms make the daily operation and maintenance simpler, safer, and faster.

Global expertise, local support

All portable HSI crushers are supported by Metso ’s global network of service professionals and optimization experts. A wide range of high-quality spare parts and wear parts can be delivered promptly and tailored for any specific process need.

Ideal when:

• High reduction rate is needed for soft or medium hard rock
• Crushed feeding material varies
• Equipment is relocated on the site or transported between sites periodically
